Michael Phelps eager for success at 2012 London Olympics


Michael Phelps has one thing on his mind-going out with a bang in London Olympics 2012 season. Micheal Phelps is also the Olympian gold medalist.

Phelps said "I want to end my career on a great note is something every athlete wants, I had confidence in myself that I could put together four more good years to really put a stamp on my career.A lot of athletes have tried to come back and tried to come back, a lot of athletes have tried to come back and tried to come back."

Phelps professional swimming has been disturbed due to various changes Phelps will have his work cut out for him.

Since the changes done on the rules and regulate on swimmers to set the new swimmers suits mandatory to wears which requires more fitness because
Changes for males include suits only allowed to span from the waist to above the knee (before they could cover the whole leg). Since that exposes more skin,
Phelps has had a hard time adapting to the new gear.

But he admits recent sub-par performances can be attributed to other causes.

"I'll be the first to admit it. I was not training as much as I should."

Phelps, who won no less than eight gold medals in Beijing is constantly occupied with extracurricular swimming activities and obligations.

Aside from obligations, swimming coach Bob Bowman indicated that Phelps was as keen as ever to give one last winning performance in London. Bowman reported that the “fire” is still there for Phelps, and that it “never left.”
